A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 320

Maria snarled, "Get out of my sight!"

Summer knew that she was kidding, so she gave the couple an airy wave goodbye. Even so, to be on the safe side, she told the driver to floor the gas pedal.

As they entered the villa, Maria said, "Just now, Summer said that you were jealous. What do you think of that, Mr. Xi?"

'Is it too late to take back Summer's holiday?' James wondered resentfully.

In a casual tone, he said, "I think we have a more important problem than that."

"What?" Maria asked, her eyes narrowed in suspicion.

"Think about it carefully. How can you make up it up to me for that slap just now?"

Without hesitation, Maria threw Summer under the bus. "Like Summer said, it proves that you love me-l slapped you, but you're not mad. You must love me that much. James, I'm so moved."

James caught Maria as she threw herself into his arms. "Well, Summer is being delusional."

"Mr. Xi, do you think it's a good idea to speak ill of your assistant?"

"I'm telling the truth." Really, the damn woman was talking nonsense. Not only did she say that he was jealous, she also told Maria that he was in love with her.

Maria knew all too well that James would not let her slap go so easily.

She could only try to pacify him so that he would go easy on her.

However, he was merciless. He didn't stop until Maria was begging for him to stop, nor did he cease his relentless conquest of her body.

'This isn't a good thing, is it?' Maria thought to herself. James' stamina was not normal.

She was dying, but he still didn't let her go.

In the wee hours of the morning, Maria grumpily pulled the quilt over her weary body and turned her back to the man with the insatiable sexual appetite.

She fell into an exhausted slumber so deep that when James pulled her into his arms later, she didn't even find out.

Late morning finally pierced through as rays of sunlight sifted through the bedroom window. Feeling relaxed after exertions of the previous night, Maria stretched luxuriously on top of the cool sheets.

With her eyes still closed, she felt for her phone beside her in vain.

As it turned out, James placed it on the nightstand, like he usually did. Her phone was powered off.

Peeling one bleary eye open, she pressed the power button and waited for her screen to light up.

It was half past ten!

Maria bolted upright, only to wince in pain as her body reminded her of last night.

"That bastard was trying to kill me!' Not only did he push her beyond her limits last night but also turned off her phone. As a result, she missed several important meetings that morning.

Did he think her company was as profitable as HL Group? She didn't have that much free time!

DS Group didn't make a good profit, and that was all because of him.

Maria was good at what she did. DS Group was able to make a fortune with her on board. However, she had to go to the United States to give birth to Bob. What was worse, James snatched a few projects from her company. Now, the ledgers of DS Group were indicating bankruptcy.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She viciously punched in a message on her screen and sent it to him. "James, if you don't return the projects to DS Group, you'll be dead."

The reply came soon after. "How are you going to do so?"

After a long time, Maria replied, "I'll take medicine and then wear you out in bed." 'Let's see who gives up first this time,' she thought smugly.

"Should I give it to you myself?"

Maria glared at the screen. How could he be so arrogant? Was he really not threatened?

Surely he must be pretending. No matter how insatiable a man was, his sex drive was still limited.

"Give me back the projects. If not, I have to file for bankruptcy. Then, I will do nothing all day but stay in your house, drive your car, spend your money, and sleep in your bed!"

"I'll help you with the paperwork right now." 'Is this his endgame all along?'

Maria did not reply anymore.

She really shouldn't take his words too seriously. Even in the worst-case scenario, she could still use his money to solve her company's financial problems.

Now, she needed to focus on one other important thing.

She had to fight back against Alina.
